We are in relentless pursuit of breakthroughs that change patients' lives. We drive innovation daily to make the world a healthier place. It was Charles Pfizer's original vision, and it still holds true today. Studies show what we instinctively know: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more inventive, recruit and maintain the best professionals, and know how to harness the power of those team members. Pfizer's purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—powers everything we do and reflects our passion for expanding our legacy as one of the most important contributors of good to the world. Each word in our purpose has significance and represents the value we strive to bring to patients and society. Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the heart of all we do. We fulfill our purpose by seeking the best science in the world, partnering with others in the healthcare system to enhance access to our medicines, using digital technologies to advance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes, and spearheading the conversation to campaign for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies. Every decision we make, and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to foster an environment where breakthroughs can flourish.
